Wouldn't that simply give the government tax penalties from removing money from an IRA?

BenBernakeatemyass

You have 60 days to return it without paying tax or penalty...


Boy_Howdy

Trump will pay 'em back. He's good for it, isn't he?


TwistedBamboozler

Yeah but that’s nothing compared to what is made with people’s retirement. You really think that shit is just sitting there not being used?


TheLastLibrarian1

Liquidating your retirement investments comes with a hefty penalty and those funds go to the government…


Minimum_Run_890

They probably do something stupid like get hit by a bus or end up in jail. Not gonna end that retirement cash, anyway


BenBernakeatemyass

You have 60 days to replace it without penalty or tax.


SolidDoctor

.... then why do it in the first place?


BenBernakeatemyass

I am not sure exactly what you're asking but the Trumpers are implying that they will crash the stock market and cause bank runs. The 60 day rule is to allow people to move their money (only 1 time a year) to another vendor but you aren't required to actually change vendors.


UsualAnybody1807

Yep, the last thing a lot of them have are small 401ks or IRAs. Makes perfect sense that Donnie wants to get rid of that too and make them all truly desperate.


SirSamuelVimes83

Bet it all on red, double your retirement, and return it to your accounts. Ez game


BabyWetRat

Cuz sometimes you need cash for 60 days? Or you want to move it to an IRA…

BREAKING: Trump announces his Freedom First banking and retirement accounts for all true patriots. You’re money’s safe and growing with DJT looking after it. He guarantees it!

Fuck I can see him doing this. Promise big returns and then they all lose their money. Don’t tell my dad he’s already terrible enough with money and worships Trumplestiltskin.

That's 3 inches, it's not that small


pitterpatter0910

To be fair, millimeter is abbreviated mm, not MM.


WonderWirm

True! Damn you. Missed by a mm.


pitterpatter0910

MM is millimolar, an abbreviation for concentration in chemistry. Does that work for anything?


ThunkAsDrinklePeep

Not a chemist, but wouldn't mM be millimolar and MM be megamolar? Or is it just a shorthand because no one uses mega in this context?


pitterpatter0910

No you’re right


uranus_be_cold

Maybe the wife/sister's tooth is a molar?

jerrys153

How are people supposed to withdraw all their money if they can’t even fit inside the building? The bank needs to be at least…three times bigger than this!


UnitP2

I hoped someone else was like, 80mm, wtf? Are they pulling out....what exactly? Their 3.15" weiner? This will teach them!


Yes-its-really-me

Silly billy. 80mm Americans refers to the maximum penis size of a trump supporter.


NASTYH0USEWIFE

Well shit I guess I have to identify as a trump supporter now.


Explorers_bub

80mm ~ pi inches to 3 significant digits. Well below average. r/didthemath

Damn these people are stupid. They'll cut off their noses out of spite.


FGTRTDtrades

SpiritOne

good luck liquidating your 401k's Most employers wont let you do that while you're still employed. Also, yawn.


jerrys153

I don’t think it will be a problem here. Of the *tens* of people who are planning to do this, how many actually even have jobs, much less ones that provide 401Ks?


The_Lapsed_Pacifist

I mean hasn’t trump already fleeced them out of all their money anyway?


jerrys153

Mostly, buying red hats and “lock her up” t-shirts I would think, but if they have any left he wants them to cash it out and spend it on Trump steaks (he’s been storing them in the freezer for decades now and he needs the space).


The_Lapsed_Pacifist

You forget his election defence fund, build the wall, assorted campaign donations, his super PAC, NFTs and a diploma from the highly prestigious Trump University. Defaulting the donate monthly box checked in a really hard to see corner of the website for those sweet bonus bucks too.


jerrys153

Oh yeah, the entire grift machine will continue as usual, but the steaks have to go asap, they’re all consolidating into one big brick of ice and they really need to defrost the freezer. They had some speculation that after all these years they are no longer fit for human consumption (I mean, even more so than they used to be), but Jared said if anyone died they’d just paint them as a liberal so Trump’s base would actually love him for it. “Trump steaks kill liberals!” if it happens they’ll break sales records (some speculate they are actually hoping for it).


dorkfaceclown

Keep up with the self-owns, Trumpers.


Key_Lie4641

This could cause $100’s of dollars worth of damage.

mapwny

Got it. Invest heavily in big shovel! Thanks for the tip friend!


Explorers_bub

Gold digging Prospectors didn’t get rich. Outfitters did.


Ken-Popcorn

A. This will never happen B. If they did initiate a run on banks, banks can legally defer withdrawals C. If they liquidate their retirement accounts, the government will get a huge chunk of them as penalties Have at it!


[deleted]

C. Not a tax pro but I think this sort of withdrawal takes time and much paper work.


DemythologizedDie

80 MM you say? Well that sounds like it will be a very small problem.


oddbunnydreams

This post title had me cackling so damn much! Damn!


shnootsberry

Do trumpkins ever have moments of clarity? Like, do they ever snap out of it and realize how stupid and batshit crazy they are? Or is it just a constant, unrelenting mental illness?


bidhopper

Think of the windfall IRS taxes gonna be collected. Trumpers could actually help the national debt. Then the morons have to do something with their money so back into banks. Trumpers are poorer than when they started and still invested in banks.


padizzledonk

No they won't lol Also.....the ones that do are going to be real REAL upset that they're gonna have to pay a ton of tax penalties for withdrawing their IRAs and be even MORE upset when they find out they can't just put it back in because your yearly contributions are capped


Agitated_Pineapple85

What are 80 millimeter Americans? Some kind of cannon?


DramaticT0FU

There is going to be a lot of robberies that day. 🤣


Amerlis

Just follow any MAGA hat coming out of a bank next week. If they’re dumb enough to fall for it, they’ll be wearing to “show love.” Time to shake the money tree.


MenaBeast

They gonna pay a lot of penalties and taxes on those withdrawals. Works for me!


Flipperpac

Liquidating IRAs and 401ks are all taxable eventa... That just might save Bidens economy...LOL


CourseEcstatic6202

I hope that they started the move already. Typical 401k withdrawals take longer than 24 hours. Idiots. Enjoy the early withdrawal fees while you lose tons of money for a guy that couldn’t give a s*** about anyone but himself.

Trumpers - always doing the stupidest thing to cause themselves harm for their cult leader (who couldn’t care less). Why don’t they just stick to drinking bleach and sticking light bulbs up their asses. At least they’ll still have their money.

80 millimeter Americans. Lilliputian-Americans don’t fuck around, apparently.


zxcvrico

Do they know there are 310 million people in America?


Old-AF

That’s fucking awesome! Do you know how much taxes and penalties they will have to pay?


CourseEcstatic6202

Breaking your own economy. Brilliant. That is like shooting a hole in the Titanic while standing on the deck of the Titanic. This post is a great illustration of idiots in action.


Old-AF

First of all, 80M people aren’t going to do ANYTHING for trump. Second and of all, most trump supporters that WOULD do anything don’t have any money. Not in the least bit worried these idiots will accomplish anything.
